We have been good friends for over a decade, going back to our college days at Brown University where we met as student-athletes. We both moved to New York City after graduating to begin our careers and, as fate would have it, eventually wound up back on campus together years later, this time at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. After re-entering the working world, we realized that we shared not only a long-term friendship and mutual values, but also professional interests. As a result, we co-founded Bruin Point Partners.
